Floor joint sealing in Strathmartine, done properly

We work on warehouse aisles, dock areas, factory floors, retail units and showrooms. Each job is priced from the metres of joint, their condition and the access windows we get and the figure is fixed before work begins. Site teams most often ask us about loading bay joints breaking down and scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor, on loading bays, saw-cut induced joints and construction joints. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Strathmartine is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Weather windows decide external joint work around a place like Strathmartine: sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within its range, so dates have some give. Inside slabs aren’t affected and can be scheduled around the occupier.

Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

When to call us in Strathmartine

Floor joints collect dust, oil, curing compound and cleaning residue. If the faces aren’t taken back to clean concrete first the new filler can’t stay bonded.

Things that usually lead to an enquiry:

  • Joint edges breaking up under truck wheels
  • Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
  • Grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor
  • Loading bay joints breaking down

A campus such as Abertay University (3 miles south of Strathmartine) has long runs of movement joint in its buildings, decks and paving.

How to choose a sealant contractor

How a job runs

In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed before we move to the next. For work around Strathmartine, we aim for one trip, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.

  1. We look at joint widths, edge condition and the traffic on each route.
  2. The quote fixes the price, names the filler or sealant and shows how the floor will be zoned.
  3. We remove failed material and packed debris until sound concrete is exposed on both faces.
  4. Dust is sucked out of the joint and a primer used if the product data sheet asks for one.
  5. The chosen product is placed to its specified depth and trimmed level with the floor.
  6. We tell you when each zone can carry trucks again and move on to the next.

Advice

What sets the cost

Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:

  • How much existing material needs removing
  • Any access equipment needed
  • How much there is to seal
  • Induction, permit and paperwork requirements

We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote.

What we need to price the job

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:

  • Clear photographs of the problem areas
  • The product your specification calls for
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • How the joints are reached, and at what height

For a fixed quote, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. You can also send details through our quote form.

Your questions answered

Is Strathmartine off your patch?

Not at all. Strathmartine is within our area. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Will you take on work at estates like Dovercourt Commercial Park, close to Strathmartine?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Strathmartine, Dovercourt Commercial Park among them, are all within reach. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.

How long do sealant joints last?

Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.

How long does a job like this take?

We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.

Can the warehouse stay open while you work?

The work is phased. Areas are taken out of use a section at a time around the site hours and access windows you give us.

Is the floor joint work guaranteed?

Every job has our 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later slab movement or damage from impacts.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.

When it isn’t the sealant

Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:

  • Unstable slabs moving under traffic
  • Worn screed or surface finishes
  • Structural cracking in the slab

If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we seal

  • Saw-cut induced joints
  • Forklift and pallet-truck routes
  • Loading bays
  • Retail and showroom floors
  • Joints along racking aisles
  • Construction joints

Aftercare for building managers

A few simple habits keep the new joints working:

  • Make joint checks part of your floor inspections
  • Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets
  • Photograph any joint that starts to chip
  • Treat loading bay joints first if they’re failing

Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets along the floor. Steel tines will mark a good joint over time.

Joint damage starts slowly and then speeds up. Once the first piece is out, wheels drop further and hit harder so early treatment saves a lot of trouble.

Leave it or put it right?

Painting or coating straight over joints rarely lasts. Joints need their own treatment before or alongside any coating work. For buildings near Strathmartine, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

What you get with us

  • One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
  • Failed material removed, not covered up
  • Constructionline member
  • Public liability insurance in place
